Why We Chose The Teva Hurricane XLT 2 Sandals: Versatile, summer-appropriate, and modern in design
The Hurricane XLT 2 range is Teva’s latest addition to their popular range of sandals. It’s a model that’s specifically tailored towards outdoor adventuring, with a sole that’s shaped for the trail to bring plenty of cushioning and grip.
Design
The Hurricane XLT 2 comes in a creative variety of colour options, including vista sunset, multi-coloured, Chara olive, and simpler black and white styles, with sizes ranging from 3 to 13, including some kid’s sizes too.
“These are suited to a wider range of activities.”
It’s described as having a ‘regular fit’, with a heel height of 3cm. That’s solidly high enough to stop you feeling any spikiness from the trail below while bringing plenty of shock absorption.
As you can see, they have those sturdy Velcro straps, as you’d expect from a Teva sandal, and then contoured podiatry points along the footbed with plenty of arch support.
Materials
It’s made from Teva’s proprietary Durabrasion Rubber which has impressed us each time we’ve tested Teva products that feature it. It’s grippy enough to stop your feet sliding about, even when they’re a bit wet with sweat and then it also offers that traction on the trail too, even on wet rock.
